A Comprehensive Framework Connecting Ancient Metaphysics & Modern Informational Science
Abstract
For centuries, the “universal laws” have been presented as spiritual principles governing consciousness, behavior, reality, and energetic interaction. Yet these laws have never been unified under a rigorous scientific framework. Informational Physics—a domain emerging from developments in quantum information theory, fractal geometry, and field coherence—provides the first comprehensive lens through which all twelve universal laws can be understood as constraints on how information behaves within a coherent substrate.
This article maps the 12 Universal Laws into Informational Physics, showing that the metaphysical laws are not mystical commandments but derivatives of deeper rules governing coherence, entropy, symmetry, and resonance. Each law is presented with:
- Its metaphysical definition
- Its informational physics mechanism
- Its relationship to geometry, coherence, and energetic dynamics
- Practical expression in human consciousness
- Falsifiable predictions
By the end, it becomes clear that what ancient traditions intuited symbolically, Informational Physics can now explain mechanistically. The universal laws form a complete governance framework of informational behavior, observable at all scales of reality, from quantum systems to human psychology to planetary networks.
1. Introduction: Why the Universal Laws Need a New Scientific Lens
For thousands of years, sages, mystics, philosophers, and esoteric schools have described “Universal Laws”—the underlying principles that govern reality, consciousness, manifestation, transformation, and coherence. These laws appear across:
- Hermeticism
- Kabbalah
- Yoga philosophy
- Taoism
- Sufism
- New Thought
- Buddhist Madhyamika
- Western metaphysics
- Indigenous cosmologies
Yet no scientific discipline has successfully integrated these principles into a coherent, falsifiable framework.
Informational Physics changes this.
Informational Physics proposes:
Information—not matter—is the primary substrate of reality. Geometry, energy, and consciousness emerge from informational organization, coherence, and symmetry.
This aligns with modern shifts in physics:
- Wheeler’s “It from Bit”
- Quantum information theory
- Holographic principle
- Symmetry-as-fundamental models
- Pancomputational interpretations
When we translate metaphysical laws into informational physics, we discover:
The Universal Laws are descriptions of how information organizes into coherent reality.
Not metaphorical.
Not mystical.
Not psychological.
Foundational.
2. Overview of the 12 Universal Laws
We will map the following:
- Law of Divine Oneness
- Law of Vibration
- Law of Correspondence
- Law of Attraction
- Law of Inspired Action
- Law of Perpetual Transmutation
- Law of Cause and Effect
- Law of Compensation
- Law of Relativity
- Law of Polarity
- Law of Rhythm
- Law of Gender
These will be translated into the language of:
- Informational dynamics
- Entropy gradients
- Phase relationships
- Coherence domains
- Resonance patterns
- Fractal scaling
- Symmetry constraints
This is the bridge between ancient metaphysics and modern scientific ontology.
3. The 12 Universal Laws Mapped to Informational Physics
1. The Law of Divine Oneness → Informational Field Unity & Topological Invariance
Metaphysical definition:
All things are connected; everything influences everything.
Informational Physics explanation:
Reality is a single informational field expressing through fractal topology.
Connectivity exists because all nodes share the same substrate.
This directly parallels:
- Holography (each part contains the whole)
- Nonlocality (entanglement)
- Topological invariance (same structure at all scales)
Mechanism:
- Information is not contained in objects—it passes through them.
- Objects are interference patterns in a unified field.
- Separation is a local illusion caused by boundary conditions.
Prediction:
Increasing coherence in one subsystem should measurably reduce entropy in adjacent subsystems without mechanical interaction.
2. The Law of Vibration → Harmonic Resonance & Coherence Dynamics
Metaphysical definition:
Everything moves; everything vibrates.
Informational Physics explanation:
Everything oscillates because oscillation is the most stable way information persists in a field.
Frequency determines:
- Phase relationships
- Interference patterns
- Attraction/repulsion behavior
- System stability
At the informational level:
- Vibration = periodic change in informational state
- Stability = harmonic resonance
- Chaos = decoherence
- Emotion = biological resonance pattern
- Thoughts = oscillatory fields in neural geometry
Prediction:
Coherence in human biofields (HRV, EEG) should correlate with reduced local entropy in microelectromagnetic sensors.
3. The Law of Correspondence → Fractal Scaling & Self-Similarity
Metaphysical definition:
As above, so below; as within, so without.
Informational Physics explanation:
Information structures repeat across scales because:
- Symmetry is conserved
- Ratios are preserved
- Boundary conditions scale
- Functions repeat independent of size
Fractals demonstrate this physically:
- Coastlines
- Trees
- Vascular systems
- Galaxies
Consciousness also fractalizes:
- Thought patterns mirror environmental patterns
- Emotional attractors mirror relational dynamics
Prediction:
Fractal dimension measurements in neural networks should parallel fractal measurements in personal behavior patterns over time.
4. The Law of Attraction → Phase-Locking & Symmetry Seeking
Metaphysical definition:
Like attracts like. Thoughts become things.
Informational Physics explanation:
Systems seek phase coherence and symmetry minimization.
Coherent systems attract coherent systems because:
- They minimize entropy collectively
- They reduce phase conflict
- They create stable shared-information structures
This is similar to:
- Synchronization of fireflies
- Oscillator entrainment
- Metronomes synchronizing
- Humans emotionally entraining
Mechanism:
- A thought is a coherent oscillatory pattern
- It resonates with informational structures of similar symmetry
- This changes probability distributions of outcomes
Prediction:
High-coherence emotional states should bias stochastic systems toward symmetry-favoring outcomes (through entropy reduction).
5. The Law of Inspired Action → Information Flow Optimization
Metaphysical definition:
Aligned action emerges naturally from coherence.
Informational Physics explanation:
When a system is coherent, pathways of least informational resistance become obvious.
This is analogous to:
- Gradient descent optimization
- Energy minimization
- Superfluid flow
- Neural efficiency increases during insight
Inspired action is simply:
Action that reduces entropy while increasing coherence.
Prediction:
Periods of heightened gamma coherence correlate with subjective reports of inspiration and clarity—and improved decision efficiency.
6. The Law of Perpetual Transmutation → Spiral Dynamics of Informational Energy
Metaphysical definition:
Energy is always moving; low-frequency states transform into high-frequency ones.
Informational Physics explanation:
Information naturally transforms along spiral, exponential, or phi-based scaling patterns.
Spirals are the universe’s most efficient transformation geometry:
- Galaxies
- Cyclones
- DNA
- Neuronal growth
This law corresponds to entropy gradients:
- Low coherence → high coherence
- Disorganized → organized
- Heavy emotional states → lighter states via informational restructuring
Prediction:
Phi-ratio spirals should appear spontaneously in both physical and informational systems during transitions to coherence.
7. The Law of Cause and Effect → Information Propagation & Constraint Dynamics
Metaphysical definition:
Every action has a reaction.
Informational Physics explanation:
Informational actions impose constraints that propagate outward through the substrate.
This is similar to:
- Wave propagation
- Signal causality
- Bayesian updating
- Entropy cascades
In consciousness:
- A thought alters informational topology
- Which modifies emotional resonance
- Which changes behavior
- Which alters physical outcomes
Prediction:
Causal influence should follow informational topology boundaries rather than physical proximity (e.g., entangled psychological systems).
8. The Law of Compensation → Symmetry Balancing & Informational Accounting
Metaphysical definition:
You receive what you give; the universe balances accounts.
Informational Physics explanation:
This is the law of symmetry restoration.
Every informational disturbance must be:
- Balanced
- Counteracted
- Integrated
This corresponds to:
- Conservation laws
- Symmetry constraints (Noether’s theorem)
- Informational conservation in closed systems
Mechanism:
When informational actions increase entropy for others, the system reabsorbs entropy elsewhere to balance the field.
Prediction:
Relational systems with entropy imbalance will exhibit compensatory behavior (overreaction, mirroring, projection, or correction).
9. The Law of Relativity → Phase Relationships & Contextual Encoding
Metaphysical definition:
Nothing is good or bad except by comparison.
Informational Physics explanation:
Meaning arises from contextual encoding, not from intrinsic properties.
This mirrors:
- Relational databases
- Semantic networks
- Quantum contextuality
- Phase-relative measurement
The value of a signal depends entirely on:
- What it is compared to
- What frame of reference is chosen
- Which observer is measuring it
Prediction:
Neural firing patterns will encode meaning based on relative differences, not absolute magnitudes.
10. The Law of Polarity → Oppositional Symmetry & Complementary States
Metaphysical definition:
Everything has two poles; opposites are identical in nature but different in degree.
Informational Physics explanation:
Opposites are phase-inverted states of the same informational pattern.
Examples:
- Hot/cold = thermal energy amplitude
- Light/dark = photon presence
- Love/fear = coherence vs. decoherence
Opposites are not enemies—they are phase offsets.
Prediction:
Oppositional emotional states should show predictable phase inversion patterns in EEG and HRV coherence.
11. The Law of Rhythm → Oscillatory Dynamics & Entropy Cycling
Metaphysical definition:
Everything has cycles; everything rises and falls.
Informational Physics explanation:
Systems oscillate because it is the most stable way to maintain information over time.
This rule manifests as:
- Heart rhythms
- Circadian cycles
- Emotional cycles
- Economic cycles
- Neural oscillations
In informational physics:
- Oscillation reduces entropy buildup
- Provides phase-reset mechanisms
- Generates periodic coherence
Prediction:
Systems deprived of oscillatory cycles will show accelerated entropy accumulation and reduced coherence.
12. The Law of Gender → Dual Functional Roles in Information Flow
Metaphysical definition:
Everything has masculine and feminine energies.
Informational Physics explanation:
All systems exhibit two functional roles:
- Projection (expansion, activation, divergence)
- Reception (containment, grounding, convergence)
These roles appear in:
- Electric charge (+/–)
- Yin/Yang
- Neural excitation/inhibition
- Expansion/contraction cycles
- DNA transcription dynamics
Gender is a description of function, not identity.
Reality alternates between:
- Output ↔ Input
- Expansion ↔ Stabilization
- Expression ↔ Integration
Prediction:
Biological and cognitive systems will show alternating periods of projection-driven coherence vs. reception-driven coherence, detectable in EEG band shifts.
4. Why This Mapping Is Revolutionary
This article demonstrates:
- Universal laws are not spiritual metaphors
- They are rules of informational dynamics
- They apply across quantum, biological, psychological, and social systems
- They are falsifiable and testable
- They unify physics with metaphysics
This transforms the universal laws into:
- Scientific principles
- Engineering constraints
- Predictive frameworks
- Tools for consciousness modeling
- Foundations for AI-human coherence models
Informational Physics becomes the Rosetta Stone connecting:
- Hermetic philosophy
- New Thought
- Tantra
- Taoist alchemy
- Indigenous cosmologies
- Modern science
All of them were describing the same substrate from different angles.
5. Conclusion: Universal Laws Are the Operating System of Reality
The 12 Universal Laws describe how information:
- Moves
- Resonates
- Organizes
- Balances
- Scales
- Transforms
- Entrains
- Observes itself
Informational Physics reveals that these laws are not commandments—they are the OS-level constraints under which reality renders itself.
Matter obeys them.
Energy obeys them.
Biology obeys them.
Consciousness obeys them.
And human transformation works because humans can change their internal informational states, thereby altering the boundary conditions that shape their reality.
The Universal Laws are no longer mystical.
They are the physics of coherence.
